Continuous overcast daylight autonomy (DAo.con): a new dynamic metric for sensor less lighting smart controls
(Taylor and Francis, 2023)
Daylight dynamic metrics are useful tools for quantifying the switch-on time or the dimming of electric lighting according to the architectural scenario. A variant of these metrics can also be used to define strategies to ...

Impact of Daylighting on Visual Comfort and on the Biological Clock for Teleworkers in Residential Buildings
(MDPI, 2023-10-10)
The current socio-economic scenario has promoted telecommuting at home for a significant number of workers, mainly due to the sanitary situation experienced and the improvement in communication technologies. However, the ...

Assessment of integrated solutions for the combined energy efficiency improvement and seismic strengthening of existing URM buildings
(MDPI, 2022-08-20)
The European building stock is an aging infrastructure, mainly built prior to building codes. Furthermore, 65% of these buildings are located in seismic regions, which need to be both energetic and seismically retrofitted ...

Analysis of Circadian Stimulus and Visual Comfort Provided by Window Design in Architecture
(IACSIT Press, 2017-06)
Light is the major synchronizer of circadian rhythms to the 24-hour solar day. Compared to the visual system, the circadian system requires more light to be activated and is more sensitive to short-wavelength light. ...

Smart controls for lighting design: towards a study of the boundary conditions
(IACSIT Press, 2018-12)
This research aims to determine the effect of the lighting smart controls in the energy consumption in buildings, according to the geometry of the room, the window size, the reflectance of the inner surfaces and the location ...

Design and Performance of Test Cells as an Energy Evaluation Model of Facades in a Mediterranean Building Area
(MDPI AG, 2017)
Abstract The current European energy policies have an influence on the need to rehabilitate the housing stock in order to meet the objectives of the European Union. Most of this housing stock was built without any type ...

Minimum daylight autonomy: A new concept to link daylight dynamic metrics with daylight factors
(Taylor and Francis, 2019)
Daylight metrics act as a useful tool to quantify the potential of natural light in an architectural space as well as the energy savings promoted by a suitable design of windows, atriums, and skylights. Accordingly, a new ...

Characterising draught in Mediterranean multifamily housing
(MDPI, 2019-04)
Social housing dating from the postwar years through the end of the twentieth century is one of the major stores of European cities’ residential stock. As it is generally characterised by a poor thermal performance and ...
